The intro to Serial Experiments: Lain (American DVD version). Can't remember the name, but the lyrics got stuck in my head... as did Lain. Sigh --- such a weird, yet oddly fulfilling series.

Kinda liked intro to Escaflowne, but I think I found a acoustic and piano version somewhere... it was really nice, less synthetic loud tones.

Gravity was also quite good (I like Maaya Saakamoto... I think she did this one)... but I might be partial since Wolf's Rain was really interesting... and good.

Intro to Witch Hunter Robin (it's been a while since I saw the series, but I still hear it and love it).

Hmm... lots of Yoko Kanno's stuff... especially some of the more solemn songs in Earth Girl Arjuna or Macross Plus.

Finally, pretty much any song in the pre-Ghibli or Ghibli films that Joe Hisashi orchestrated. I especially liked My Neighbor Totoro's opening (hey! A guy can like a kid's movie!) and Requiem for Nausicaa.

My favorite songs are from the initial d soundtracks, so my favorite anime song is so hard to chose from, I really like the Initial D Battle Stage OST. It's probably "24 hours a day" but I dont like to chose from among my hundreds of initial d tracks.

Other anime songs I like would be the op to Da Capo, I really like it for some weird reason and obviously the Evangelion op (i memorized the japanese for this song and i dont know what it means lest i watch the dub).

My fave anime song would be Escaflowne's "Yubiwa" by Maaya Sakamoto.
I think she is the one hell of a singer, really good at expressing emotions in a song, and of course coupled with Yoko Kanno's excellent song compositions.

Other constant faves include the rest of the Escaflowne ost and most of Yoko Kanno's works.

Initial D's "Kimigairu" , Ghost in the Shell's "Making of cyborg" and Chobit's "Ningyohime" are also great stuff.
